What did Customer Service And Tech Support Say?:confused:

It has been 1 week no response.

Nada..if this continues it may be best to just delete the program. It used to be a great resource.

Totally Stop using Limewire and delete it out of the system ?:confused:

i left it on for 10 minutes and it connected to 5 bars, good to go!

i should mention that i uninstalled Spyware terminator and AVG virus, then reinstalled an older verion of AVG....then things worked. it just wook a while to get full connection to LW

ooops.......... i only get 4 results per audio search, no matter who the artist is; they are (.au, mp3, mp3 and an .snd file) none of which are downloadable. DANG!

Same here ...
 
Hi

I am getting the same result ... takes ages to connect ... then just the four unrelated results as above.

Anyone got any idea what the problem is, please?

Hitherto I have been able to use Limewire trouble free. My only recent change to my PC is loading XP Service Pack 3 (under protest, having postponed it for the year). My ISP is Tiscali who have recently been taken over by Talk Talk ... dunno if they are bu**ering about with things?

Thanks

Paul

TalkTalk are known to shape speeds for p2p sharing. I think however you can use LW off-peak hours. Check the links for ISP's known to BLOCK or Filter p2p or specifically Limewire (Click on blue link) under TalkTalk about known ways to get around it.
